Will this be a walking sim?
Will there be any gameplay or is it really just an environmental storytelling game?

From clips and all, I think it might be a bit of a mix. There ARE weapons but with limited ammo (considering the basis of the world of Scorn is that it's desolate and crumbling), and from the 8 min prologue video I watched of the game, there will probably be puzzles that open up new areas.

Therefore, might just be a mix of walking and things mentioned earlier with the added bonus of body horror and looming dread!

8mins ? Did you not watch the whole 40min prologue gameplay yet ? It is a survival game with puzzle elements so expect lot's of walking for sure. The prologue puzzle is the whole room and you have to go from here to there to top to bottom and stuff.

"Art will remain the most astonishing activity of mankind born out of struggle between wisdom and madness, between dream and reality in our mind."

If you don't understand this famous quote, you will never understand Art and you will never understand SCORN. I recommend that you play simple-minded games. Like Mario Kart or Tetris. But for someone like you, even Tetris is just a "Rotating colourful blocks Simulator".

Best,

Half-Life is also an environmental storytelling game. That doesnt mean it has no gameplay lol. This game is nothing like Half Life, but saying it cant have gameplay because there arent any cutscenes doesnt make any sense.

Its like Amnesia. You walk around, solve puzzles, get scared, run away, fight in very very rare occasions maybe, like that.

I don't think your Ripley gimmick makes it ok for you to act like a tosser

Why do people keep throwing this pretentious argument around to any criticism about this game? I see it in almost every thread like it means something.

"You don't get it" isn't a rebuttal. This post is just an appeal to spite.

People do get it. They just don't want to play a walking simulator, it isn't too hard of a concept to grasp. The atmosphere and environment got people interested in the first place, that's why they are here. People just don't want to pay $35 for a walking simulator.

People place value in different attributes of a game, for some the atmopshere is important, others the music, and for many it's the gameplay elements.

I think you need to grow because your ignorance is astounding.

You have no idea what you're talking about, that's a pretty accurate description for Amnesia.
